Shun Multi-Purpose Kitchen Shears are designed to snip herbs, trim asparagus, cut up tortillas, trim beans, open food packages, cut cheesecloth or waxed paper, trim flowers, and more. Also handy for cutting cord, twine, or rope, opening packages and envelopes. One blade is serrated to easily cut through tough or fibrous materials. The non-slip plastic over-mold on the handles makes them comfortable to use. The blades separate for easy cleaning, then lock together easily and securely for use. There's also built-in nutcracker, jar opener, bone notch, lid lifter, and two screwdriver tips, one in each handle. Perfect for tightening a loose screw in the kitchen cabinet without having to go to the garage to find a screwdriver. Made in Japan with a lifetime warranty.
